I have been inundated with questions as to whom I am supporting for
Plainfield school board this year. In my opinion, the team worth
supporting in this year's school board election consists of those who have demonstrated a longstanding
commitment to our children. This team
reached out to me to discuss how they want to improve the quality of
education in our schools--they have longstanding ties to the Plainfield
school district and are known in the district as involved citizens.

Terrence Bellamy has been PTO President at Woodland
School for the past 5 years--that's commitment. Carletta Jeffers has been a
parent advocate for several years, with invaluable experience to offer about
working for children with illnesses and other special needs, and David
Rutherford has demonstrated his commitment through his volunteer service in the
Plainfield school system, his own middle school teaching experience, and
through his other community works. David represents the new generation of
Plainfield’s young people who want to improve our schools. Terrence and
Carletta have an unmatched track record of involvement as parents and through
the PTOs. So, in addition to voting for me, please also vote yes on the 3 public
questions, and vote for #2, #3, and #7 - Rutherford, Jeffers, and Bellamy for
Plainfield Board of Education.
